In the footer of a report, I have 3 text boxes, txtIncome, txtExpenses and txtPercent".
txtExpenses is a calculated control which refers to a text box in the detail section which gets its value from a subreport. It is formatted as currency, 2 decimal places
txtPercent= [txtExpenses]/[txtIncome]. It is formatted as percent, 1 decimal place.
I would like to combine txtExpenses and txtPercent into one box. I have done this by creating another text box with the following control source: =[txtExpenses] & " - " & [txtPercent]
However, in the new text box, the formatting is lost and the decimal places aren't consistent.
For example, instead of $2665.00 51.5%, I now get 2665 - 0.5157731759241
I have added the $ and % symbols but I don't know how to get the decimals correct.
Any suggestions?
